The Whole Nine Yards Reviews

Some very funny moments, but not for kids.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 29, 2010

It's a slim film, but there are some undeniably enjoyable moments, mostly derived from Perry's effective pratfalling.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 17, 2001

It's like one of those late Blake Edwards comedies in which very little is working, but you have to admire the attempt at some physical humor.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 1, 2000

It's laugh-out-loud, side-splitting funny.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Jan 1, 2000

The picture also allows its female leads to show their considerable stuff.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 1, 2000

The Whole Nine Yards a bright crowd-pleaser with a clever script.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Jan 1, 2000

Another of those 'zany' romantic comedies starring a cheeseball star from a sitcom series.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jan 1, 2000

The Whole Nine Yards ends up on the undernourished side.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/5 | Jan 1, 2000

Director Jonathan Lynn keeps the comedy rolling smoothly.

Full Review | Jan 1, 2000

Judging from the dull light that pervades every scene, The Whole Nine Yards wasn't just all shot in the same place, it was all shot on the same day.

Full Review | Jan 1, 2000

A movie that might have seemed amusing a couple of decades and four or five rewrites ago, but plays like an unsold sitcom in the post-Sopranos world.

Full Review | Jan 1, 2000

Almost everybody wants Matthew Perry dead in The Whole Nine Yards. This would be a good thing if it were to stop him from making more movies.

Full Review | Jan 1, 2000

The movie relies far too much on killing off characters to tie up loose ends.

Full Review | Jan 1, 2000

The Whole Nine Yards does not go the distance.

Full Review | Jan 1, 2000

The Whole Nine Yards is a ragtag affair enlivened considerably by Willis' easygoing manner.

Full Review | Jan 1, 2000

Director Jonathan Lynn keeps a loose rein on the nuttiness but never lets it get out of bounds and maintains the film's comic buoyancy throughout.

Full Review | Jan 1, 2000

Lacks both the good acting and a screenplay.

Full Review | Jan 1, 2000

Much of the film's 'charm' comes from the affection the characters have for each other.

Full Review | Jan 1, 2000

It produces some laughs.

Full Review | Jan 1, 2000

Wacky and heartless.
